Reset Command
The switch unit stores mouse and keyboard connection and rate data and uses
this information to emulate the physical mouse and keyboard. If
communication between the switch and mouse and keyboard fails, the selected
server may not function. The Reset command takes the mouse and keyboard
information that was saved in Snapshot and sends it to the server to reestablish
connection with the mouse and keyboard. Resetting the mouse and keyboard
attempts to restore the correct settings for the selected computer.
Because the switch emulates the physical mouse and keyboard, it allows a
computer without an attached keyboard or mouse to operate as though there
were a physical device attached to it.
To reset the mouse and keyboard values, click Reset.
NOTE: If this does not correct the problem, press the Reset button on the back panel of
the switch.
